CHAPTER 508: CHAPTER 472: SELLING FAKE MEDICINE

In the camp...

When Butcher sent a message saying that he had captured four captives, Mountain Eagle, with a smile on his face, added a few large logs to the stove where he was stewing beef and potatoes, then cheerfully said to a few Indian women, "10 more minutes and it will be time to eat..."

Tiffany, watching Mountain Eagle’s relaxed demeanor, leaned in with a bit of curiosity and said, "Do you already know something?

Why aren’t you worried at all, with your kids being in the camp?"

Mountain Eagle handed Tiffany a 78-kettle, smiling as he said, "This is your lunch box with a kettle, your dining apparatus. Don’t lose it."

Then he looked towards the direction of the main house...

The three Special Service sisters didn’t have weapons, nor did they have the impressive aura as seen on TV. Instead, they were each handed a baby bottle and were dragged into the whirlpool of baby care.

In fact, Tiffany knew this was a test of obedience, Miranda and the others were aware too, but they were extremely annoyed at the moment. However, their maternal instincts prevented them from taking their anger out on the babies.

Watching the tall Red Sparrow get spit up on by a baby and then starting to sing a curse-filled lullaby while holding the little one on the porch railing...

Miranda seemed rather calm, carrying a child around the main house, occasionally chatting with a few STER team members.

The smallest member, Hummingbird, seemed to be overflowing with love; she cheerily floated around the cribs, responding happily to every cry.

Tiffany, a bit worried Miranda wouldn’t complete the mission, pulled Mountain Eagle aside and said, "You need to give them more time, or how would Miranda have any time to come up with a defense plan?"

Mountain Eagle watched Luna squealing out from the main house, chased by an exasperated Yue Yi. He sighed, caught Luna as she passed by, lifted her up, and said, "Don’t run around, it’s almost time to eat."

Luna cupped her little face with her hands and made a pitiful expression, saying, "Daddy, Fist got poo-poo on his hands."

Yue Yi rushed over, angrily smacked Luna’s buttocks, and exclaimed, "It’s all your fault..."

Luna wriggled and laughed out loud, shouting, "You’re the one who touched it, you’re a scaredy-cat, you got scared by the baby’s poo-poo..."

Yue Yi, hearing this, with his suspicious hand in the air, shouted, "Now you’ve got it on you too..."

Luna paused, then with her nose crinkled fiercely, she shouted, "I’m not afraid of stink, only scaredy-cats are afraid of stink..."

Mountain Eagle felt Luna squirm aimlessly in his arms and put her down with a bit of struggle, looking at his wrist where his son had smeared the suspect substance, he sighed...

"You guys are stronger than me; I hate stink..."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle grabbed two little rascals, shouted over to Zack who had followed them, "Zack, you are the oldest brother, keep an eye on them and make them wash clean. No dinner unless they’re clean..."

Zack paused, looked at Mountain Eagle’s earnest expression, grinned broadly and nodded hard, saying, "Yes sir..."

After he finished, Zack actively grabbed Luna and Yue Yi by the neck and herded them towards the sink.

Looking at the anxious Tiffany, Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "She knows what she’s doing. Red Sparrow is tasked with drawing attention through her outrageous actions, and Hummingbird is scoring points with her kindness...

Miranda is observing..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle pointed to Miranda who was walking around the main house with a baby, occasionally making marks on the ground with her foot, and said, "The places where she makes marks are dead angles from the main house’s viewpoint, and when she chats with those STER team members, she reminds them...

If it’s just one house, she’s already passed."

Tiffany’s attention was mostly drawn by Red Sparrow, but upon hearing what Mountain Eagle said, she noted Miranda’s actions.

Seeing Miranda was indeed making marks on the ground as Mountain Eagle had described, she was very surprised by Mountain Eagle’s attention to detail...

"What kind of freak are you?"

Mountain Eagle looked disdainfully at Tiffany, whose shoulders were rather broad, and said, "I’m not a fool who only looks at women’s chests...

That Red Sparrow, cursing while occasionally flashing her underwear, is trying to attract attention on purpose if she’s not schizophrenic.

It’s a trap if you just stare at her..."

Upon saying this, Mountain Eagle paused, placed his hand on Tiffany’s shoulder, and said, "Butcher and the others are back with four captives. Let’s go take a look; some scenes are not suitable for children."

Feeling Mountain Eagle’s weight leaning on her heavily, Tiffany reached out to support his waist, playing the role of a crutch as they walked and said, "How’s your physical condition right now?

Camel is still in the hospital worrying about your condition!"

Mountain Eagle glimpsed at Miranda observing him from the side shadows of the main house, and with a smile, he said, "The rejection condition is under control, now I just feel uncomfortable all over.

The doctor says with my condition, it’ll take one to two years of adjustment before possibly returning to peak condition...

But according to the recent rate of recovery, I’ll be almost back to normal in two or three weeks.

This is a secret, do not tell anyone!"

Tiffany listened and frowned, saying, "Who are you planning to set up?

I warn you, don’t mess around...

There have been recent changes to the FBI’s top brass because of the Solin family saga, and the Hammerhead Shark Team of the HRT has been suspended.

Camel and the others consider you their hope, so don’t wear yourself out!"

Mountain Eagle, laughing, said, "What can a half-invalid like me do?

Next month, I’m making a trip to Los Angeles. There’s an important negotiation regarding Snowden to be held there."

"Letting everyone think I’m harmless is the only way to set most minds at ease!"

Tiffany looked at Mountain Eagle as if he were a ghost, and instinctively lowered her voice to ask, "What exactly are you planning to do?"

Mountain Eagle smiled mysteriously and said, "You’ll know when the time comes..."

Tiffany pointed to her nose and said, "Me? What does this have to do with me?"

Mountain Eagle said matter-of-factly, "I’m now appointing you as the captain of the Arctic Fox Rescue Team; I’m your boss.

Since I’ve never been to the United States, you’ll have to come with me, of course."

Mountain Eagle then glanced at Tiffany’s shoulders and laughed, saying, "Eat less hormones; you do look quite safe, but you’re growing a beard on your lips.

How often do you usually get hair removal done?"

"Once a month..."

Tiffany blurted out subconsciously, then angrily punched Mountain Eagle and cursed, "That’s my privacy..."

Mountain Eagle cried out in pain while clutching his arm. He looked at Butcher, who was running towards him, raised his hand and said, "I’m fine, take me to see..."

Mountain Eagle glanced at Tiffany, who was looking annoyed, then lowered his voice, "It was Camel who asked me to speak to you. What’s the point of a lady like you trying to turn into Stallone?

But I do respect lady’s feelings. If you are particularly concerned about physical fitness, I have a secret recipe brought from Hua Country that can quickly adjust your body to its optimal state.

No pills, no injections, you just need to follow the diet and exercise plan."

Tiffany looked at Mountain Eagle skeptically...

Faced with Mountain Eagle’s sincere expression, Tiffany hesitated for a moment, then lowered her voice to ask, "Really?"

Mountain Eagle nodded very seriously and said, "Really!

But the skeptical look in your eyes just now really annoyed me, so now if you want it, you’ll have to agree to one condition of mine."

Tiffany, wary, pinched her collar and asked, "What condition?"

Mountain Eagle, amused and slightly exasperated by Tiffany’s response, shook his head and said, "I need a partner for my rehabilitation...

You will accompany me through the rehabilitation process. What I eat, you eat. Whatever exercise I complete, you complete.

During this process, you are not allowed to use any hormonal drugs. If you do that, I’ll teach you the upgraded secret recipe.

Let me tell you, the strength of my body is all thanks to this recipe."

Tiffany ran her hand over Mountain Eagle’s arm and chest, then said hesitantly, "Are you sure?"

As Mountain Eagle saw Tiffany getting interested, he smiled and said, "Young lady, what I am telling you is a secret of East that can only be passed on to sons, not even daughters are allowed to see it.

Your father Camel is my comrade-in-arms, and seeing that you have a unique build, I hate to see you go astray, so I am willing to share my secret recipe with you.

Rest assured, if you follow my training, uncle won’t deceive you..."

Tiffany looked into Mountain Eagle’s eyes and said, "What if it doesn’t work?"

Mountain Eagle waved his hand and said, "If it doesn’t work, I’ll make a public apology to you in the newspapers, admitting I’ve led people astray."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle quickly moved a few steps forward while Tiffany was still out of it, reaching the corner of the warehouse at the edge of the camp...

Seeing several Big Dobermans surrounding four guys kneeling on the ground with their hands raised, Mountain Eagle stroked the Dobermans’ heads appreciatively, then looked at the guys whose hands were covered in blood and smiled, "Gentlemen, tell me who you are...

Also, you’ll have to explain why you’re on my land, especially during a time when a murder has happened nearby..."

As Mountain Eagle spoke, several Dobermans seemed to cooperate with him, lowering their bodies and growling at the four men with bared teeth.

The middle-aged Big Beard involuntarily leaned back and said loudly, "We mean no harm, we’re here looking for someone..."

"Looking for whom?"

Mountain Eagle whistled, and five Big Dobermans instantly sat down, looking so harmless that the previous events seemed like an illusion.

Looking at the surprise on their faces, Mountain Eagle said with a smile, "Gentlemen, breaking into other people’s territory with weapons to look for someone is not a good excuse."

Big Beard Thomas Brown glanced at the weapons in Butcher and the others hands, then at the fierce dogs close by, and spoke rapidly, "My name is Thomas Brown; I’m the owner of a private investigation company. In my pocket are my ID and business card. If you call the number there, someone can vouch for my identity.

I really am here to look for people. A group called the Green Nature Foundation. Eight members went missing from this region a week ago.

We arrived in this area two days ago. We found their last campsite and tracked them until we lost the trail halfway.

We should’ve turned back, but then we saw the smoke, so we came over to have a look."

Hearing this, Mountain Eagle was about to question him when Butcher by his side shook his head, "Boss, he’s lying..."

Butcher pulled several MP7s and magazines out from their backpacks, along with a few shock bombs and Smoke Bombs...

"People from a private investigation company don’t carry these kinds of weapons..."

Thomas Brown chuckled with a wry smile and said, "Our client warned us of some risks here, so we took precautions.

Can I lower my hands and attend to my companion’s wounds?

We really don’t mean any harm, unless you’re involved with the disappearance of the Green Nature Foundation’s members..."
